After being a subject of mockery on the social networks due to a slow start in the transfer market (they have not signed anybody so far), Manchester United have finally started to act in order to streghten the squad which finished in a disappointing sixth position in the Premier League last season. A lot of work is being done to fulfill the wishes of the new coach Eric Ten Hag, and in order for the Dutch expert to get what he was looking for, this summer United decided to “hijack” and brutally beat the competition. It started with the ’theft’ of Tyrell Malacia, who was already seen in Lyon, and could continue with the case of Lisandro Martinez. The Premier League has offered 43 million euros to Ajax for the central back who is a big desire of Arsenal. It’s no secret that upon arriving at Old Trafford, Ten Haag set his sights on the players he worked with at Ajax, since another big transfer wish has been Frankie De Jong from Barcelona.🚨 – JUST IN: Manchester United have placed a €45M offer for Lisandro Martínez. €41M guaranteed, €4M in bonuses.

The Devils signed Rafael Varane a year ago for 40 million euros, but injuries did not allow the Frenchman to gain continuity – because of them, he missed half of the season, and even when he played, he was not at 100 percent of his ability. That’s why the defense needs a serious refresh.Dutch overtake at Old Trafford – De Jong close to joining his former coach for ‘pocket money’Let us remind you that Arsenal’s first offer for Martinez of 25 million was promptly rejected, and that the Gunners had sent a reinforcement which, with all the bonuses, grew to 40 million. United are now offering 43 million fixed, which is 7,000,000 less than Ajax wants. Probably the Devils want to ’feel the pulse’ of the Dutch club and, if necessary, by adding certain bonuses, make them completely happy. If they delay the sale of Martínez, the leaders of Ajax risk that they will be left with an unsatisfied footballer in Amsterdam. United are working on multiple fronts at the same time and both Frankie De Jong are Christian Eriksen are in the mix.##NAJAVA_MECA_6483809##
